The Seattle community is full of writers of all different backgrounds and styles. Some write plays and film and some are writers of books and novels, but everyone has something in common. We are all pretty excited when November rolls around. The writing community comes together and rallies around each other for NaNoWriMo because it’s a celebration of writing what you love and ignoring the inner editor inside. That’s because the one rule of NaNoWriMo is that you can’t edit or backspace while you write. You have to move forward so at the end of the month you have 50,000 words of total, unadulterated mind vomit. It’s actually a good way to work because you can see what kind of story you end up with and then you have a whole chunk of beautiful fiction to whittle down into whatever your vision needs it to be. The goal for NaNoWriMo and for November is to write 50,000 words which comes down to 1667 words per day.
The Kick-Off Party for NaNoWriMo is happening here at Shoreline College at the library (the 4000 building) on Halloween night, October 31st. Costumes are encouraged, but not mandatory and the writing happens at midnight, so it’s a late night event. There will be candy, coffee, and all manner of shenanigans. We’re starting at 10:00 p.m. and the party goes until 2:00 a.m. There will be a mug exchange because so many of us need coffee, tea, or some other beverage to keep the words flowing during November. To participate, buy a mug and wrap it and you’ll end up taking one home! See you there.

Thurs., June 7: 7:30-9:30pm

Snow White, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Sleeping Beauty, have found a way to escape from their centuries-old fairy tales. Arriving in the “real world,” they quickly attract the attention of the media and the public. As the four attempt to discover the meaning of life, they end up becoming reality show celebrities. Then they begin to realize that the real world, similar to the fairy tale world, is full of tricks and traps. Fame, love, youth, and marriage are each unsolved riddles.
Off We Fly Now challenges the boundaries between fairy tales and the truth. Perhaps, after all, the tales were written to prepare us for life in the real world.
